Summary |
When ancient parasites that thrive on hatred rise from beneath a small town, taking the most fearful and susceptible as hosts, a young trans filmmaker struggling to transition in increasingly hostile times for LGBTQ+ people, finds herself the only one who can sense the possessed, and rally the resistance before the horror escapes and spreads. T blockers is equal parts gross-out comic horror and heartwarming coming-of-age story. It's a loving homage to queer cinema of the past, a power of friendship comedy that centers trans experiences, and a middle finger to the bigots of the world. |
